The current debate about the best methods of European organization
- central or regional - is influenced by an awareness of regional
identity, which offers an alternative to the rigidities of
organization by nation-state. Yet where does the sense of
regionalism come from? What are the distinctive factors that
transform a geographical area into a particular 'region'? Tom Scott
addresses these questions in this study of one apparently 'natural'
region - the Upper Rhine - between 1450 and 1600. This region has
been divided between three countries and so historically
marginalized, yet Dr Scott is able to trace the existence of a
sense of historical regional identity cutting across national
frontiers, founded on common economic interests. But that identity
was always contingent and precarious, neither 'natural' nor
immutable.
